'''''Hidalgo''''' tells the story of Frank Hopkins ([[Viggo Mortensen]]), an American cowboy who was reduced to touring in Buffalo Bill Cody's ''Wild Wild West'' travelling show. He is the owner of a paint Mustang, Hidalgo, with whom he has an extraordinary bond.

Line 33:

* [[High-Class Glass]]

* [[Magical Native American]]: The chief in Buffalo Bill's show could qualify.

* [[Mighty Whitey]]: Two counts: First, Hopkins comes to be seen as a champion of the native-Americans (perhaps forgivable, as he is indeed half-Indian, and on an Indian horse). Second, the entire premise is that he beats the Arabians and the ~~bedouins~~ at their own race, on their own land, against their champion riders and horses. And also has to bat off the ~~Shiek~~'s daughter, to boot.

* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]: Frank remembers he is this just when his fighting skills are needed.

* [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]
